You can also check by visiting **Settings** > **Bluetooth & devices** > **Cameras**, then select from the list of **Connected cameras** and open the settings for that camera. You will see a section under the video preview titled "Windows Studio Effects." If you only see "Basic settings," then Studio Effects are not likely supported.
